Lead the Future of SAPN's Commercial Strategy

Turn Data into Decisions & Power Insight-Driven Performance

Shape Enterprise-Wide Outcomes with Executive Influence

SA Power Networks (SAPN) is a leader in South Australia's energy industry, responsible for delivering electricity to over 1.7 million customers as the state's sole electricity distributor. It's about more than simply keeping the power on – SAPN is an innovator, focussed on connecting South Australians to a better energy future, today. With a workforce of over 2,900, the business is focused on delivering strong commercial outcomes while upholding its commitment to customers, community and sustainability. The finance function plays a key role in enabling performance, ensuring accountability and supporting the organisation's long-term success.

As the commercial engine of the finance team, this role is all about looking forward. Leading SAPN's budgeting, forecasting and long-term planning, you'll provide the financial insights and performance analysis that drive smarter decisions and sharper outcomes. Reporting to the CFO, you'll play a key role in capital planning, scenario modelling and strategic resource allocation, ensuring every dollar is working toward the organisation's goals. This is a high-impact, future-focused position that partners closely with business leaders and shareholders alike, shaping performance conversations, challenging assumptions and guiding investment decisions. With access to new platforms like Workday Adaptive Planning and a strong focus on data analytics and insight, you'll elevate the finance business partnering function and embed a culture of commercial acumen, accountability and forward-thinking performance.

You are a commercially astute and analytically sharp finance executive, with relevant qualifications to match. You've led high-performing FP&A, Commercial or Finance Business Partnering teams in large, complex organisations, and know how to turn numbers into insights and insights into action. Ideally, you bring experience from a regulated environment or an adjacent industry such as energy, utilities or infrastructure, where strategic foresight and disciplined planning are essential. You're proactive and have the confidence to challenge, influence and guide key decisions. Experienced in engaging at Board level and with external stakeholders, you bring credibility, clarity and commercial thinking to high-stakes conversations. Comfortable working at pace and in ambiguity, you're a trusted advisor to senior executives, capable of shaping enterprise-wide performance and delivering impact.

This is a standout commercial finance role with real influence across the whole business. With strong executive support, investment in data-driven capability and a high-performing team around you, this is your chance to help shape the next chapter of SAPN's finance transformation.
